    Default Co Q-10

    In order to not jack the face tanning thread I've stated this one for those of us that want to discuss Co Q-10. I just bought a bottle today at walmart. I got the 100 mg bottle. It came in 50mg, 100mg and I think a 250mg. The 250mg bottle was a bit pricey at $25 so I opted for the $10 bottle (100mg)

    The back of the bottle says:

    "Coenzyme Q-10 plays a role in helping the body convert food to energy. Studies indicate that Co Q-10 levels may decline as we age. Coenzyme Q-10 helps neutralize harmful free radicals in cells. Co Q-10 may also help support a healthy heart. A daily intake above 50 mg may provide enhanced cardiovascular and antioxidant protection."

    Sounds lovely to me!

    I also picked up some chromium piccolinate but that's a different thread.

    also, I just got a rite-aid flyer today. They are having buy 1 get 1 free for their vitamins and herbal supplements. I don't know if they carry Co-Q10 though, could be worth checking out.

    I buy the nivea cream with co-q10. Its suppose to help get rid of wrinkles. I hear if you take it orally it gives you energy. Let us know how it works.

    I use the Nivea Body firming lotion w/ CoQ10 and it works great.
    Also CoQ10 taken orally is very good for your skin and your body overall.
    Its one of the many supplements I take daily.

    Can this give you energy really? I want something else besides diet pills for energy.

    I haven't noticed any increased energy from taking it.

    Would there be benefits or different results if you were to take it orally rather than rubbing it on in a cream? Im about to go to the local vitamin store and buy a bunch of stuff and wonder if its worth it.

    well, my own personal opinion is that it would be more beneficial if taken orally. I haven't tried the cream yet but am considering. I like new products anyhow. INcidentally, I popped open a CO Q-10 capsule to smear the contents on my face...you know...like a vitamin E capsule. This stuff is bright orange...with a smegma consistency...hahaha...anyhow it kinda tinted my face...like an orange tanner. So I probably won't be doing that anymore...I'll just look for the cream.

    I just wanted to say that I bought some of the Nivea C-Q10 lotion for your body and my skin is super smooth in just 2 days. Now they say wait 2 weeks for results for your entire body.
    I saw some C-Q10 at wal mart for like 10 bucks. It was a small bottle of 50mg tabs of about 90capsules.
